Editing - Second Stage

Now that me, Xiangyu and Greg have together filmed some more shots in our second filming session, we have begun to upload them and add them on Final Cut Pro in their respective places. We have found that whilst adding some of the the new shots, this has helped us in making decisions about editing some of the first shots. I think this is down to the fact that with the new shots, we are starting to get more of a feel of the film opening coming together as a package, even though we know we still have some way to go yet.

A time-line of our film.

We have watched the film through multiple times at various stages to try and ensure that there are no inconsistencies with the fluency and mise-en-scene of the film. So far we are happy with how the two lots of shots have fitted together as it is extremely difficult to tell that there have been two separate filming sessions taking place, which is of course what we intended for the film and audience.

We have also held some shots back from both of the sessions as we are indecisive as to whether or not we will need them in the future and to not want to scrap them for this reason. We feel that after the stage of music and titles our decision may be become more clear.
